Does programming & selling aimbots, wall hacks, trainers etc. make actually good money? Also is it legal or is it more in the gray area?
How can guys like this still fucking operate in the clearnet?

Henry Wood
why would it be illegal?
Charles Morgan
1. Yes it makes good money
2. No it's not legal. Or rather, you don't get in trouble with the police but the company you're making cheats for will sue the everloving shit out of you. And win.
Kevin Allen
>the company you're making cheats for will sue the everloving shit out of you. And win.
does anyone aside from blizzard even do this?
and what are they going to sue you for though? as long as you don't distribute any copyrighted materials and such it seems fine
your program """happens""" to interact with the game in a certain way, doesn't seem to infringe on their copyright to me, might as well sue OBS for recording your game next
Connor Reyes

>what is EULA?
Aaron Sanchez
from what i understand not legally binding in europe where a lot of these sites operate
Jordan Howard
Insane money, a lot of autistic kids who want to be good but cant. All my friends who are in this make at least 20k a month and thats without SEO or advertising, just through forums. Private cheats that are UD sell for $50-150 a month. You get 10 people and thats $1.5k already.
You will get sued left n right, also their anticheat squad will raid down on you. They will ban your paypal so you need to launder it.

No it isnt legal
Dont make cheats for blizzard games, they will show up at your doorstep.
Valve and activision dont give a shit, but that doesnt make it legal.
Owen Martinez
what makes it illegal though
Juan Harris
this guy somehow explained it:
hackerbot.net
i guess as long as you follow certain guidelines and don't be an ultra-douchebag you should be safe.
at least it's not ransomware or anything similar that is blackhat all the way. but ofc bigger the risk, bigger the earnings. (in the case of ransomware, the risk is your fucking life)

You are breaking TOS
Benjamin Stewart
A decent CSGO private is atleast $20 a month, and some of the biggest suppliers like Aimware have more than 10k subs. It's probably more profitable than 99% of stuff you can do as a coder.
Ryan Mitchell
Makes good bux if you bundle something extra with it :^)
Bentley Williams
Why don't game companies make those cheats themselves and distribute then anonimously?
Thomas Scott

Breach of their anti-hacking measures. Unauthorized use of their servers.
Ethan Martinez
are there any cases where this has happened in europe? seems more like an american thing to get sued for, even harder or impossible in russia/some other shithole
same here bro, we'll make it sometime
Ryder Morales
It happened like once in the history of video games and that was blizzard who are notoriously retarded.
Daniel Nguyen
seems like ideal market for crypto payments
Isaac Ward
how are paid hax protected?
Ayden Carter
I tried to RE a hack once and it's full of packers and TLS callbacks plus usually a serial with remote check over SSL
Lucas Williams
Yeah, basically, since you're "not using" their product, you're not breaching the EULA because you're not an active participant.
The cheater themselves are technically breaking it though.
Jaxson Roberts
Idiots. Stupid fucking idiots.
You can't get sued unless it's explicitly designed for their games.
If I make an aimbot that can essentially be used for any game and you license it with something saying it's up to the end user and that this software is not made for cheating etc etc you ain't getting sued.
Now if my program is called something like overwatch bot 2.0. then I'll probably get sued.
Tldr don't make aimbot that are explicitly for specific games, but make them so they do have functionality for that game, thus, the problem lies with the end user.
Jayden Fisher
Who the hell actually pays for this shit?
Jayden Fisher
why does Sup Forums not start a cheat site to sell these things? i'm sure there are enough capable programmers here
Kayden Rogers
what would people who can write hacks gain from sharing profits with Sup Forumstards?
Kevin Gray
maybe they're gentoo tier autists who couldn't possibly make their own website, design, advertise, and deal with people in general
Easton Barnes
"pro gamers" in csgo
Benjamin Brooks
are you from the US?
Bentley Jenkins
no, why?
Gavin Gutierrez

Jaxson Barnes
>If I make an aimbot that can essentially be used for any game
Literally impossible, you need to read main exe memory and variables that are unique for every game you play, you clearly don't know how to program for shit
Ryan Mitchell
>"gentoo tier autists"
>implying that someone who can write a hack can't easily create a website for their stuff
>implying they aren't intelligent enough to advertise it on their own
>implying being able to "deal with people" is a special and unique trait worth sharing profits over
Luke Johnson
You could make an aimbot/trigger or that aims at a certain color quite easily and it could be for multiple games. It has been done before but it was for Source based Valve games where you could edit the model materials so all enemies would be bright red, and that's what the aimbot would aim at. Wasn't a very good aimbot however.
Samuel Martinez
Wow you are literally retarded
Logan Edwards
i guess my fears are unfounded then
